My Dad Is A Gun
Location
My Dad Is A Gun
No one wants to touch him
Afraid he will go off at any time
He sits quietly and passively until his trigger is pulled
Then BOOM
When he goes off it hurts a lot
Emotionally and physically
What he does when he goes off, you can’t take back
His words penetrate beyond the top layer
His actions make blood
Forgiveness is not an option
He is a gun
To other people he is a shiny, beautiful gun with the safety lock on
A gun that they envy and want to have
To other people this gun is warm, graceful and empathic
To other people he doesn’t dare show his loaded ammo waiting to be fired
To other people he is a gun without bullets
He is a gun
To us he is a gun with no safety lock that tends to be moody
To us he talks of no emotions, but slowly turns the revolver using his ammo little by little
but it hurts the same
To us he knows how to aim accurately and attack with an annihilating vengeance,
so we don’t dare pull his trigger
To us he has an unlimited supply of bullets
